Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) is a major human pathogenic bacterium in gastric mucosa which is linked to the development of gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma and gastric cancer. However the regulatory mechanism of H.pylori-induced immune response is not clear. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) has recently emerged as key post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression, differentiation. The investigators had a preliminary results which THRIL (TNFα and hnRNPL related immunoregulatory lincRNA) and PACER(p50-associated COX-2 extragenic RNA) played a potential role in H.pylori induced inflammatory cascade. However, there wasn't a previous study about expression of THRIL, PACER in a human tissue. Therefore, the investigators aimed to evaluate the expression of THRIL, PACER in patients with gastrointestinal disease according to H.pylori infection.
There are lack of endoscopic criteria for diagnosing Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection by conventional white light imaging (WLI). Linked color imaging (LCI) is a newly developed endoscopy technique, which can diagnose mucosal lesions and H. pylori infection by enhancing color contrast of the mucosa. The aim of the study is to investigate the ability of LCI for diagnosing H. pylori infection compared with WLI.
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), which infects about 50% of the global population, has been recognized as a main risk factor of multiple gastric pathologies, especially non-cardiac gastric cancer. Strongly evidence supports that H. pylori eradication is an effective approach to reduce the incidence of those pathologies.
Doxycycline- and Furazolidone-containing Quadruple Regimen can be a successful rescue treatment for Helicobacter pylori Infection patients after Failure of several therapy. It is superior of tailored therapy as rescue treatment for helicobacter pylori Infection after failure of several therapy.
Helicobacter pylori eradication (H. pylori) rates with clarithromycin-based triple therapy are declining, and an alternative strategy is needed urgently. The investigators sought to compare the efficacy of pretreatment antimicrobial susceptibility-guided vs. clarithromycin-based triple therapy vs. concomitant therapy for H. pylori eradication in a region with high rates of multiple drug resistance.
This study is designed to compare the eradication rates，safety and compliance of tailored therapy to those of standard triple therapy in children with H. pylori infection. The primary purpose is to compare the eradication rates of children with H. pylori infection treated with tailored therapy to those treated with standard triple therapy. The secondary purpose is to evaluate the safety, compliance and factors that might affect eradication rates.
New generations of fluoroquinolones, like levofloxacin and moxifloxacin, exhibit a broad-spectrum activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and have been successfully introduced into the treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection. However, it was suggested that resistance to fluoroquinolones has been increasing in the Korean population and the resistance is most likely mediated through point mutation in gyrA. Gemifloxacin (FACTIVE®) is an enhanced-affinity, broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone suitable for once-daily, oral dosing. In vitro studies have shown that gemifloxacin displays potent activity against Gram-positive organisms, whilst retaining good activity against Gram-negative organisms. Gemifloxacin is the most potent member of the quinolone class against S. pneumoniae with activities 16-64 times greater than those of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin and 2-8 times greater than those of moxifloxacin. Importantly, gemifloxacin displays potent in vitro activity against strains of S. pneumoniae with known resistance to β-lactams, macrolides and other members of the quinolone class. This potent activity is believed to be due to the enhanced affinity of gemifloxacin for topoisomerase IV, the major fluoroquinolone target in S. pneumoniae. Furthermore, gemifloxacin displays potent activity against H. influenzae and M. catarrhalis and atypical organisms such as L. pneumophila, C. pneumoniae and M. pneumoniae. It has proven particularly effective in respiratory and urinary tract infection.
Helicobacter pylori infection has been shown to be associated with the development of gastric cancer and peptic ulcer diseases. Eradication of H. pylori infection could reduce the occurence or recurrence of these diseases. The triple treatment including a proton pump inhibitor, clarithromycin, and amoxicillin or metronidazole to treat H pylori infection, proposed at the first Maastricht conference has become universal since all the consensus conferences and guidelines around the world recommended it. However, the eradication rate of clarithromycin-based triple therapy has been declining in recent years, probably related to the increasing resistant rate to clarithromycin. It was estimated that 15-20% of patients would fail from first line standard eradication therapy and need second line rescue therapy. The H. pylori persistence in human infections and its resistance to the drugs commonly used in antimicrobial therapy have been attributed not only to genetic variability, but also to ability of H. pylori to form biofilm as a strategy to overcome environmental stress and to protect itself. Several recent reports indicate that H. pylori forms biofilm either in vitro or in vivo, N-acetylcysteine (NAC) were thought to reduce and prevent biofilm formation. Two small-scale clinical trials showed NAC offers additive effect on eradication effects of H. pylori therapy. A recent trial showed N-acetylcysteine pre-treatment before a culture-guided antibiotic regimen is effective in treating refractory H. pylori infection. Aims: Therefore, we aim to assess 1. Whether triple therapy containing N-acetyl cysteine is more effective than standard triple therapy 2. the impact of antibiotic resistance and cytochrome P450 C19(CYP2C19) polymorphism on the eradication rate of triple therapy containing N-acetyl cysteine.
